The dog can be seen moving its head up and down every time it barks, but during the last bark of the shot, the dog's head remains completely still, revealing that the last bark was dubbed in.

Other mistake: When Vera returns to her house, a calendar with 2017 listed as the year can be seen on the wall. The present-day scenes take place in 2014, so there shouldn't be any reason for anyone to have a 2017 calendar. (00:56:55)
